Question 19 • Literature and Composition III

Which sentence makes the best use of a transitional word or phrase?

Answer
A
Math was interesting to me in high school; for example, it is interesting to me in college.
B
Math was interesting to me in high school; in contrast, it interesting to me in college.
C
Math was interesting to me in high school; otherwise, it is interesting to me in college.
D
Math was interesting to me in high school; likewise, it is interesting to me in college.

Explanation

“Likewise” shows that the same idea applies in both situations: math was interesting in high school and is interesting in college. “For example” introduces a specific example, “in contrast” signals a difference, and “otherwise” introduces an alternative, so those transitions do not fit the relationship between the two clauses.
